Stars: Bill Oberst Jr., Michael Pare, Tom Parnell, Mark Savage, Khalimah Gaston, Alexander Pennecke, Pacey Liz Walker, Austin Janowsky, Scot Scurlock, Liz DeCoudres, Kristina Beringer, Eve Jordan Litchfield | Written by Tom Parnell, Mark Savage | Directed by Mark Savage
Back when I reviewed Purgatory Road I said it might be the film to finally put director Mark Savage over in the US market. Instead, he dropped off the map for four years. Now he and co-writer Tom Parnell back with Painkiller, a sequel to their 2016 dark comedy Stressed to Kill which I haven’t seen. That film featured Bill Oberst Jr. as Bill Johnson, a man who takes the doctor’s advice to get rid of stress a bit too literally and starts killing those who annoy him. In Painkiller, originally titled Stressed to Kill: Doctor’s Orders, he’s back, but his killing has a different focus.
Bill is a radio talk jock.
